Hm I tend to find my etrex touch 35 wants to launch itself out of those mounts. I literally have to cable tie it to the stem.
That and its tendency to just freeze on the map screen (you can unfreeze it by changing zoom level) or just switch off at random is getting on my wick.

They're not the Garmin mounts so I'm hoping they're a bit less launchy (I've just bought a couple). If they are as loose as the Garmin ones I'll add some tape on the back or perhaps drill the mount and run a ziptie or something through it to the lanyard hole so it can't move far.

Put a bit of tape on the miunt to make the tolerance tighter. And yes I still strap mine on via a leash.

Just a quick PSA that someone has finally finally made a good, non-3D-printed, Etrex to quarter turn adapter that’s available for not much money in the UK. Combined with a top cap mount it makes for a super neat setup.
